The Gift Of Choice

Give the gift of choice

Looking for a way to give money that is more convenient and safer* than giving cash, which is also widely accepted and more versatile than 'store' gift cards and vouchers?

MasterCard has the answer for you: prepaid gift cards.

Prepaid gift cards offer a lot of advantages. Whereas a gift voucher or traditional gift card is often tied to a particular merchant or shopping centre, a MasterCard or Maestro prepaid gift card can be used wherever MasterCard or Maestro cards are accepted – which means millions of merchant locations worldwide, and over the internet as well.

Plus, the person you give the card to can use it to buy a gift of their choice.

Most of the MasterCard or Maestro prepaid gift cards you will see are instantly available, but they can be loaded with money only once. The advantage of this is that the person buying the card doesn't need to have a bank account or present any identification documents at the time of purchase.

Are you a card issuer?

Companies looking to streamline and improve their employee incentive and consumer promotion processes should consider the MasterCard® Prepaid Business Gift and Incentive Card Programme. The Programme provides businesses with a way to expand on the options of when, where and how employees and customers can use their rewards
